Role trade during pick/ban phase

iQyaQQ·Mar 26, 2016·5 votes·721 views

Here's an idea. Since it's oh-so-usual for players not to want to go to the lane they have received, and it's not uncommon at all for two players to swap roles regardless the lane they were originally were going to go, i say why don't we make it official? Extend the swapping options by giving the summoners the permission to offer a trade of roles during the desired-champion-picking-phase which is extended during the whole pick/ban phase anyways.

tl;dr Give permision to summoners to offer role trade.

no! i sadly don't want someone spamming trade me while i have the window for banning up. its more important that i ban than i trade someone because they didn't get the role they wanted most but got their secondary roll instead.

i don't mind role trading but they can propose and discuss it in the chat during this phaze instead of spamming a giant trade me box.

and anyways people should actually talk things out more in this game rather than automating more things IMO

and yes i noticed you said during the desired champion phaze but riot is notorious for all or non scenarios. honestly i would get rid of intended champ in favor of them instead allowing this but disallowing trading during the pick/ban phaze since most people dont use the i intend to play this page anyways unless they are going to play a commonly banned person.

Yeah, well said. The truth is that a lane-swap button can lead to heavy abbuse. To be honest it just annoys me that when a swap does take place, the selected champions are in the wrong place in the minimap. Has our beloved Riot forsaken us little OCD fellows? :P
